Killer Instinct: Anniversary Edition is a must for either Killer Instinct fans or fighting fans in general. This is packing so much content it's virtually mind blowing. You get a lot of characters with majority being DLC ones. You get a few modes that have their own unique experiences. Plenty of stages to play for months to years. There's a lot of challenges for the roster as well. Assuming they enable the achievements, there's a few hundred achievements alone!!! You get so many skins for the roster I can't name many fighting games that comes close. This is a truly solid fighting game that properly modernizes Killer Instinct. It's really mind blowing such an fighting game actually exists!!! The soundtrack with the sound effects are really impressive as well. There's plenty of secrets hidden in the game. Also considering the gap from Killer Instinct 2 or Gold, this is well worth the wait.
Its a crime we dont have a proper sequel to this game like seriously the roster of this game is very awesome! The music is a must hear while you are performing long combos on your opponent. Honestly its kind of hype. Come to GoG please so more may experience the ULLLLLLLTRAAAAA COMBOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
